"Amelia," I could hear Jade's panicked voice from behind me though he wasn't that close."Where are you, Jade?" My heart is heaving up and down causing my pulse to quicken but I forced the words to roll out of my lips more like I wasn't afraid.When I am cringing inside!"I am up here, please don't make a move," I nodded though he couldn't see me."Just be careful, so sad you don't have a wolf," he murmured the last word sadly but I just smiled.All of a sudden, just like that I felt a wave of new strength overwhelm me.With steady and slow steps, I started crawling on top of the stones under the rivers.At times, I could come in contact with their scales or their body.It is irritating and at the same time scary but I bite down my tongue to avoid making any sound and continue crawling my way out of that water.Reaching almost the top, I held the ground and pulled myself out of the water.Using the sight of our werewolves we find each other, though I don't know but our sight isn't tha
We both continued striding inside the cave whose air seemed chilly.I halted in my step as my ear perked up, I heard something.I glanced at Jade who also has the same look on, we both heard something.I sighed and took a sharp breath before titling my ear to know if I could hear the sound again.And just then, the rustling sound came again with murmuring.I exchanged a look with Jade who nodded his head and gestured for us to step forward.As we inched closer the murmuring started getting audible and readable.No longer the sound of a heinous creature but the voice of a human.Something is really happening in this cave.Suddenly I stopped hearing sounds or voices, and before I knew it rocks started falling from the top."Amelia!!" Jade screamed before rushing toward me and pulling me away from the direction where the rocks were almost crashing against each other.I staggered back with my eyes almost bulging out from its socket."Jade!" I pushed him away as I noticed a huge rock falli
Allen's pov:I sat beside the cave on a cornerstone there deep in thought.Albin seemed restless with his forehead caressed in a deep frown.Ryan and the other old man were sitting beside the other end.Everywhere was damn quiet and calm. Nobody is talking to each other or trying to bleed each other head down.And I liked it that way, peaceful and quiet.I run my hand through my hair repeatedly.Where could she possibly go?She is badly hurt, even though she claimed that she doesn't want me but at least I want to know how she is feeling not after sustaining that kind of injury.I let out a tiring sigh and rubbed my temple, the issue is where could she be?"I think I have an idea," I saw Ryan walk up to us, grabbing our attention."What a silly idea?" Albin snarled between his teeth.Ryan chuckled, "I think that she might have followed that ocean there," he pointed at the enormous ocean beside us.I watched as the vast ocean swirled around with force.The image of Amelia jumping into
Amelia's pov: The atmosphere seemed timid and chilly. I could feel a strange aura around the damn cave, the old me could have cowered in fear on seeing the strange man standing in front of us. His cold eyes pierced through me more like he was looking deeply through my soul. But I remained unfazed, not giving him the impression that he wanted. I refused to submit as I matched his gaze, narrowing my sharp gaze at him. Though not long, he quickly tore his gaze away from me and focused them back on Jade who was standing a few meters away from me. And that's when what Jade said earlier meandered my mind. What Jade said had me confused. Who is he? Who is Jerome? How did they know each other? I thought that he claimed not to know anybody or…….. Wait! How sure am I that he is not among his felons? "Who is he?" I managed to voice out. "He is…….. " I am the guardian of this cave," he cuts in before Jade could finish his words. I tore my gaze from Jade and settled them on him. "
"Who are you?" His sudden question caught me off guard.Who do I tell him that I am now?A slave in the pack!The little pup that her parents and pack were ripped off her!The little pup that spent all her teenage life in distress and sorrow!Or……. The little girl that survived all these years for one thing.VENGEANCE…..I stared at him but no words seemed to be rolling out from my entangled lips.I feel my anger resurface on hearing his question.His questions brought me back to memories that I always fought to forget.I am just a tore girl with her heart ripped out from her.I feel nothing as the only thing that kept me going is one thing.The pain and cry of agony that I want him to experience.Dangling his head shamefully with his head hung on the open field for the birds and vultures to feast on. I looked at Jerome not knowing what to say to him. Only God knows if any of them standing beside me was among those that invaded our pack years back."She is a slave in the black storm
They are here!I noticed Jerome's eyelid squeezed slightly in disturbance as his gaze suspiciously glanced at us.I sighed and looked away, I already knew what he might be thinking.That we kind of trick him, merely thinking of that crushes my stomach.Why did I get so relaxed? Why forget that those that traveled and left their pack just like that can't sit and watch me sneak out from their nose?*sighs* I turned back to stare at angry-looking Jerome, he looked damn pissed.His cold rough gaze settled on Jade who seemed confused."What is going on here?" I watched as Jade quirked his brow at him, "What is going on, as in how?" Jerome's nose flared up in anger with his eyes changing color to a darker shade which I guess was his wolf.Wrinkles loomed at the corner of his eyes, and his palms clenched tight."Hold your shit together, Jerome," I snapped at him before he could try anything stupid.Strange! I notice him cower back in fear at my outburst."I know those people, I could feel
But wait……!Did he just say Alphas? My lips twitched with my eyebrow pulled up together.My eyes stretched and drawn back in confusion, I perked up my ears to ensure that I heard the right thing.What does he mean by Alphas? Is Alpha Khalid here as well?Oh!....... I half covered my mouth in fright, what if he is here?My eyes widened in horror, what will Jerome do now?Holding the rails, I pushed myself off the wall and slowly started climbing up the stairs.About to take one more step, I felt someone grab hold of my hand. No need of veering around because I already know who it was, Jade."Where do you think that you are going?" He asked in a muffled voice."Have you ever asked yourself what if Jerome is in danger?" He smirked before returning his gaze to me, "He is fine, besides, none of them knows about him," I gulped and looked up to the small opening that stood as an entrance door here.He is right, if what they said about him being in hiding for more than twenty years even
Gosh! I sighed when Jerome pulled the door damn open. "Finally!" Jade let out a sigh behind me. "Have they gone?" He replied with a small nod."You all can now come out," We climbed up the stairs before he closed back the wooden door.Bending, he locks it and uses the rug to cover it up as usual."I thought that you were mated to the first brother," he asked when standing back to his feet."Albin," my face scrunched in disgust."Yeah, I guess that's his name," he nodded slightly."Yeah," I gave him a small shrug."But why is the second one more affected by your absence?" My breath caught in my throat at his sudden question.Despite everything, I still haven't gotten the time to know the meaning of the bond that I shared with Allen.I knew that it was more than a mere pity from him.Not a friendship but there is more to that which I couldn't place my finger on what exactly that could be."I don't…. Uh. Have no idea what you are talking about," I said, avoiding the words rolling ou
